Recently Oxley Home Care commenced providing home care personal services for my father. The Senior Care Coordinator was very prompt in coming to visit my father and in organising support within a week of my phone call enquiry. She has been very friendly and helpful, and keen to ensure that the Care Worker is a good match for my father. We appreciated her phone call following up after the Care Worker's first visit to check that Dad was happy and that his needs were being met.
Dad is indeed very happy with the support of his Care Worker - "She is a delightful young lady with a personality that brightens up my day. She comes for one hour five mornings a week, and is meticulous in carrying out the allocated tasks. She is efficient and uses her initiative." Many thanks Oxley Home Care! Margaret Grainger

Concerned about losing your independence? How Home Care can help…

A British survey has found that almost half of the respondents are more afraid of losing their independence as they grow older, than of dying.

The research was carried out by charity the Disabled Living Foundation (DLF), and showed that 49 per cent of respondents were more afraid of a loss of independence while only 29 per cent were afraid of dying.

When asked about the things that concern them most about getting older, over two thirds of people (68 per cent) say losing independence or becoming dependent on others, second only to concerns about ill health (74 per cent) while struggling to cope financially (44 per cent) comes in third.

The survey also revealed that almost half (44 per cent) of those surveyed are worried about having to move into a care home in old age.

"Since home care is considerably cheaper than residential aged care, it is not only what most people want but also potentially more fiscally sustainable for Government. We are seeing that residential aged care is increasingly becoming an end-of-life option, with the average age of admission increasing,' said Australian Productivity Commissioner, Karen Chester.

A solution for people concerned about losing their independence and moving into aged care facilities is home care, which can assist people in maintaining their independence at home.

Home care services can include:

Support services – such as help with washing and ironing, house cleaning, gardening, basic home maintenance, home modifications related to your care needs and transport to help you with shopping, visit your doctor or attend social activities.

Personal care – such as help with showering or bathing, dressing, nursing, allied health and other clinical services – hearing services and vision services, care co-ordination and case management.

Home Care Packages – depending on an individual’s needs, a Home Care Package provides a co-ordinated package of services tailored to meet specific care needs to help the person stay in their own home and also provide choice in the way care and services are provided in the home. Home Care Packages are funded by the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing to support eligible people over the age of 65 years with the essential home care assistance they need to live a quality life independently, maintaining their personal and social connections with the community, in the comfort of their own home.
